After winning a premiership in my first season of football six year ago, I became a dedicated lover of the game. I am a rural journo by trade and just love telling peoples stories about as much as I love running on the pitch and playing football. Its all fun and games...so game on!

South Melbourne - Most successful club in Victoria at ignoring its womens teams?


South Melbourne FC are big on promoting themselves and the 'most successful team in Victoria' but the club seems to have forgotten they have a womens team!

After scouring their very nice, new website I couldn't find a scrap of information about their Womens Premier League (WPL) team, who were the rising start of last years competition.

SMFC's new website has videos, radio stories, slide shows etc etc they also Twitter and Facebook but all they have about the WPL team on their own website is this pathetic line...

SOUTH MELBOURNE WOMENS FOOTBALL CLUB

More information coming soon...

Hmm fascinating. Nothing about them kicking off this weekend?

After a quick google I found this link to the SMFC womens teams, which is on a separate website.

South Melbourne's womens team made their first WPL finals appearance in 2009 losing to Heidelberg in the Preliminary Final.

They were also the WPL's most improved team coming back from almost relegation in 2008 to be in the top three.

Come on SMFC show a little bit of support for womens football and start promoting your ladies - the mens team is not the only game around!
